I'm still in the business of coming up with some ideas on to revive the battle tower here to bring forward to EP and one of those ideas is another of my standard monotype tournaments that I hosted several of in the past. Before I do so though I want to gauge the interest level of the community here to see if that is something that everyone else would want to do. Give me your input guys!

Sorry I should have explained what a monotype tournament is, I just thought that everyone would know that. Basically what it is you select a type and five of the six Pokemon of your team must be that type. With other standard rules like species clause. So for example I chose fire a legal team for me would be Ninetales, Charizard, Infernape, Typhlosion, Emboar, and Swampert an illegal team would be Ninetales, Charizard, Infernape, Typhlosion, Swampert, and Samurott.

The one type that you choose forces you to think more strategically about your team as well as the type that you are going up against.

I wouldn't mind doing it. I have no online battling experience. Sure lets do it. What would you win if you came first? Worthless Psybucks? I just need some prep to get my pokemon. Hmmm. So one of them would be a Weavile, maybe a Charizard as well. Any guess on what type I would choose. Does the gen matter when it comes to online battling. I'm so sick of being limited because I don't want to cash out on BW2.

Sure, I'm on. One question, though. Will we play by the VG rules and bans or by the Smogon tiers?

I personally would have interest in joining this as well. I've never used a mono-type team before, but I've seen very many successful strategies utilizing them before. (The most notable of which was a mono-normal team that nearly swept me on Pokemon Online!)

But yeah, I'll see if I can't start training soon if it happens to take place. I've already got two ideas for types I would use, and now I've just got to narrow between the two.

Dammit, so this means no Swift Swim + Drizzle. Oh well... I still have stuff up my sleeve.

Wow guys impressive, by my count (including myself), we have seven people interested. That is not too terribly shabby, maybe we can get some more people interested and maybe I could get some old battlers in on this. Spread the word to your friends of this!

I'd totally be interested in doing this. I remember competing in your last tournament and it was fun. Although I don't know if I actually could because my DS's top screen isn't working, but if I fix it or get a new one, I'd definitely join.

If I can connect my DS to internet, I will join.I have WPA2 password but they ask me WEP key instead, so I can't connect.Also, my network have a "É" on it, who totally glitch everything and I can't do manual setup since this character doesn't exist on the DS...Well, If I find a way to connect, I'm going to join!

If we are going to do this I'm going to need a date, so I can actually get to a certain point in my game where I have all the pokemon I want. At this point all I have is.... Wait is the going to be played on BW. Please don't do BW2. At this point I only have well, my nothing that's in my type.

Check this, the third post down. Not sure how much of a techie you are but it's worth a shot.

BW and BW2 are compatible for battles. The only catch is that BW won't let you see which form some Pokemon are (the Kyurems and Therians since they aren't around in BW) in Team Preview.

I also have a question of my own. I've started putting a team together and I'm wondering how far I need to level them. Do the online battles auto level them up, I'm assuming to level 100, or do I have to train them up that far?

Shinashu is on a trip currently. He'll return on Monday. Wait 'till then.

Actually no. If they're 50 of over they get set to 50 with stats on that Lvl. Anything under 50 is at the same Lvl, with the same stats. I have no games that are anywhere near finished. I don't have time to train it too that Lvl. So... I'm out if thats needed.

Rules- All players select a type they would like to use. All matches will be conducted in 6v6 singles, lvl 100. All teams must be at least five sixths of your chosen type. (Which means if you choose water you must have at least five Pokemon with a Water type.) You are allowed to have one wildcard per match. Sleep Clause. Evasion Clause (exception to this are moves that indirectly raise evasion, Snow Cloak, Sand Veil, Accupressure, Metronome.) No item clause will be enforced. No extreme hacks. (Exploding Shiny Magikarps are just fine though.) No Ubers (though I love Latias, just no Ubers) If a discrepancy occurs redo match if it happens again both players are out. *New rule to which I want to add* You may switch out your entire team or any number of Pokemon during the tournament between matches, as long as it still makes a legal team!

If anyone has questions about the rules just say it here and I will go into much greater detail. As for a date I'm going to leave this open for just a while longer, two weeks tops, and then I will get permission from EP and open this tournament up.
